The conditions in japan should suit us as compared to dreary Europe in winter.
Fake news.
More likelihood of pissing down weather in Japan than Northern Europe at that time of the year. That time of the year being Indian Summer / Autumn.
I don't recall much if any rain during matches in 2015.
The Wales v SA QF was a grey day.

@MiketheSnow I take it you missed the ABs-Boks semi final.

I didn't, but forgot it was wet.
But as 'one swallow doesn't make a summer' neither does 'one spit make a winter'

@sparky I’ll be more than bloody surprised if Josh Ioane starts.
I thought playing Lima Sopoaga in 2015 at Ellis Park was a stroke of genius.
Be very interesting to see how Josh Ioane goes in the cauldron of Estadio José Amalfitani. Even if Plan A isn't for him to go to the RWC, the All Blacks will need him battle-ready in case there is an injury to Beauden Barrett or Richie Mo'unga.

With Ofa T, Laulala and Ta'avao in the squad, I don't see why they would force Franks to make the long trip to Argentina. -
